Since 2013 there have been reports about Kromp's plans to build the world's largest indoor diving base with a hotel on the site of a former sewage treatment plant in Witten , North Rhine-Westphalia ( Witten sewage treatment plant ). According to the reports prepared, the plans are considered “feasible and profitable”. In July 2016, reports were made of the impending failure of the plans due to a funding gap of around EUR 900,000. In November 2017, the plans were finally declared to have failed because the investors and the project developer could not agree on a financing model.
